New Member from East-Central Texas
I've recently moved to the area from central Arkansas where I participated in shooting sports (Steel Challenge and IDPA) and served on an emergency response team at my church (where we received training from SWAT, the DEA, and medical professionals). I've trained in taekwondo for ten years and instructed for six. I've been carrying a compact 9mm Glock with a Viridian CTL weapon light, Talon grips, and Trijicon HD night sights for about three years now (IWB, 3:30 position; Reign Tactical kydex holster, Raven Concealment double mag carrier). Due to my current daily environment here in Texas, I am interested in purchasing a pocket-sized handgun for increased concealability. If you currently carry a pocket-sized gun, I would be interested to hear your experiences and opinions on the matter!

Welcome to the forum.
I switch between the Colt Cobra and the S&W 638-3.
I feel comfortable with both. The 638-3 has the +P and the Cobra gives me six rounds.

Howdy from South Carolina, and welcome to the forum.
SIG P238 is an alternate carry for me when I need to go small.

Welcome to the forum.
There are a bunch of good pocket guns out there. I happen to be a big fan of the LCP.
